Quite a tricky one, but could be worse. Would a decent Cup run help shut MON's critics up? A 40th anniversary Cup win would certainly do for me!
We'll go out in this round unless we fix ourselves sharpish. Bolton are a decent side and will be well up for it.
It's the old banana skin game lads Bolton will be looking to the cup as a respite from their league campaign and, will see us unless we improve dramatically in the next month as a good way to do that. No faith that we will win that one and to be honest not too bothered about it we have to sort our league position out first and foremost that should be the priority for MON and the club.
Time to give the likes of westwood bramble Vaughan meyler McClean Campbell Ji Wickham run outs. Its sad but im that worried about the R word I couldn't care less about the Cup at the minute.
Good memories of Jan 1983 my first away match at Bolton 3rd round and we won 3-0, the draw was at 5.30 pm on a saturday them days, on the coach on the way back: a rare victory on the road i saw. We should win but who knows.
